Can a glider do a beat up with the brakes out? Sure can! And an unconventional way to join a circuit...
Some updates and corrections:
Sonds like the other plane is static, on a pole!! From those familiar with the airfield. That makes much more sense :)
Likely the brakes were NOT open the whole time as seen by the airbrake lever. That makes more sense too.
Apologies I pronounced Puchacz wrong, should be 'Poo-Hatch'.
Thanks to all those who pointed out those things!
